Sitting next to people who listen to their music through their earphones with the volume up so loud that you need earplugs yourself........Its so annoying. Rosi |

An Olde Crone | Report | 24 Nov 2005 00:14 |
News Presenters who sign off saying 'Have a wonderful weekend' You don't actually give a **** what kind of weekend I have, and why should you, anyway????. People who call me Maureen. People who park in my expensive,clearly marked, private parking space (but I have the last laugh, they get the lipstick treatment). Mouth breathers. People who only wash occasionally and cover up with cheap perfume. Grotesque old men who seem to think I will be grateful for their attentions just because we are in the same age bracket. Next door's cats using my garden as their toilet. Olde Crone |

Bob....this 'H' business.I have looked it up as you suggested.Now,going by their definition,it's the modern English alphabet.At the start of the 'H' section,it says :--- the 8th letter of the modern English alphabet,representing in Old English a guttural sound,gradually softened down to a spirant and now often silent. Where I come from,we grew up being told that if you said H,you were one religion and if you said Aitch,you were another. I personally find it terribly strange to pronounce it as Aitch.I do say H. ...........maybe I have still got Old English in me !!! :~) |

People who say 'only a volunteer', 'only a housewife', 'only a street cleaner' etc. We're all hardworking people, whatever we do. It's a mega put-down. Susan |

There's a man who lives on my delivery who insists on holding onto my sleeve and staring right into my face as he's talking, that really bugs me...I hate that feeling of being cornered..I stop and talk to many people but all I want to do in that situation is to get away from him. Paul |

People with pushchairs who walk right into you. Screaming kids Kids running round a restaurant (they should be in McDonalds) People having personal conversations on their mobile so everyone can hear. Crying poverty pensioners who shop in Marks and Spencers buying expensive food. People who use the word 'Basically' when they talk ie. Well basically what it is Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr People in supermarkets who go to the hand basket checkout with a Trolley People in a supermarket who go to cash only queue then use a credit card (idiots!) People who try to push pass you when I thought the word was excuse me. People who dont say thank you when you open the door for them. Men at traffic lights who sit in their cars either scratching their private parts or picking their noses. I could go on forever, but think thats enough for now, cos Im a grumpy old woman. Yvonne |

Yvonne, I have to agree with you about the pushchairs and the screaming kids and I see you have noticed the men with nasty habits (at traffic lights) must be travelling the same routes as me.Lol Madeline |

People who walk into you. People who block aisles, escalators, doorways, etc People who won't move when asked politely and then who complain when you move them. Smokers in non smoking areas. Screaming children. Screaming parents. People who leave their car engines running when parked. People who park outside my drive. Young thugs who think it's ok to play football outside my house at all times of the day and night, but won't do it outside their houses. Claire the GM weather girl and her love of the letter A. I have loads more and I am also a grumpy person. M. |
